Although still largely rural, parts became industrialised in the 18th and 19th centuries and the Northampton area gained a sizeable shoemaking and leather work industry; by the end of the 19th century it was almost definitely the boot and shoe making capital of the world. These themes form the basis of the 2023 Guild conference from April 21st to 23rd in Northampton.
